Last weekend I traveled to Uxmal, a Mayan ruin about a hour's drive south of Merida. One of the reasons I wanted to study Spanish in the Yucatan was the rich history here. I'm fascinated by the Mayans, and their ruins leave plenty more to pique my curiosity.
I think this cultural history is essential to learning a language; the Mayan and the Yucatan cultures still permeate life in Merida.
This weekend I'm headed to Chichén Itzá, another major ruin. More to come from that spot!
